Crafting Authenticity: Dagostino Pasta's Innovative Packaging Design
How we transformed Dagostino Pasta's packaging design, blending Sicilian tradition with modern appeal, resulting in a captivating brand story on...
In a crowded market flooded with natural remedies, Native Ceuticals embarked on a mission to stand out by offering transformative, holistic solutions to common health issues. Their commitment extended to meticulously crafting homeopathic formulas infused with locally sourced, natural ingredients from Mooresville, NC.
Despite their dedication, a critical issue emerged: their product names, labels, and packaging failed to align with their brand identity. Seeking a solution, Native Ceuticals turned to The Molo Group to develop a comprehensive product redesign strategy. The goal was clear: establish consistency across the brand, brand awareness, and impact the community’s health through their products.
Thus, the question arose: what does it take to truly capture attention in today's competitive market?
We at The Molo Group took a unique approach to redesigning Native Ceuticals' products, distinguishing them from competitors by avoiding 'CBD' and 'THC' terminology. Why? Because emphasizing the health solutions inherent in all-natural products resonated more with customers.
We implemented a packaging redesign strategy focused on the effects of the natural ingredients rather than the ingredient names themselves. To make customers reflect on how they will feel after using the product, we planted the seed and made them imagine relief from their ailments.
For example, the tincture named 'Balance' is more than a list of ingredients, like CBD Isolate and Ashwagandha. It's an invitation to question what makes you feel unbalanced and presents a tool for obtaining internal balance and harmony.
Aligning with Native Ceuticals' nature-inspired ethos required a significant transformation in packaging and labeling to truly resonate with customers. The journey began with a comprehensive redesign of the packaging's user experience. Previously cluttered with unscannable QR and bar codes, alongside lengthy and unclear usage instructions, the packaging confused rather than enlightened consumers about the product's solutions.
In response, we introduced a series of strategic changes. We transitioned from the stark, uninviting all-black bottles to welcoming, earth-toned amber containers. This shift harmonized with the brand's natural identity and enhanced product preservation against UV light, contributing to sustainability and extending shelf life. Additionally, we improved readability by enlarging the font, making instructions clearer and more accessible to users.
Understanding the concerns of our client's target audience, particularly the apprehension surrounding THC ingestion, was crucial. To address this, we differentiated non-THC products through a distinctive labeling approach, adopting all-white labels with colored typography to signify purity and THC-free content.
Moreover, the redesign embraced the essence of Native Ceuticals by incorporating new icons that accurately represent the brand's core values: ingredient transparency, local production, and all-organic elements. These changes clarified product offerings and reinforced the brand's commitment to quality and customer trust.
To further enhance user experience, we integrated a color-coded system designed to simplify product selection while tapping into the world of color psychology, ensuring each hue resonated with its intended purpose. Mindful of their commitment to a natural, earth-toned aesthetic, we chose not to saturate the design with overly vibrant colors.
Consequently, we selected a restrained palette that communicates clearly yet subtly. We chose a dusty red for pain relief, conveying vitality and strength, while sleep aids received a serene, muted blue, promoting tranquility and peace. Skin health products are adorned in a soft golden yellow, evoking youth and radiance, whereas products aimed at stress relief are presented in light lavender, symbolizing ambition and spirituality. Specialty items feature an earthy green, representing healing and protection, and our pet product line is marked by deep charcoal, echoing feelings of security and optimism.
The methodical approach of pulling psychology into brand design ensures that each product is easy to identify and aligns with the holistic and therapeutic nature of the brand.
